Not or Not: EVH Edition

[James Franciscus]

It's already a forgone conclusion that most of you will say NOT, but I'm sharing this because when I woke up this morning it was lying on my door step.

I used to own the Peavey version of this back in the day and the sound is very similar. It's also built for little people. It's a straight up rawk guitar. You won't get much Charlie Christian out of this baby.

Not or Not?

 

[Flamencology]

I didn't even have to open this thread:

It should be destroyed.

I'd stick the tip of the headstock into a bench grinder, but otherwise, sure. I'd give it a spin.

But that's the best (only?) part!

It looks like a misshappened can opener.

 

[Tiltsta]

I love it. I don't care for the headstock, but it isn't a deal killer for me.

 

[Packerbacker]

Same here. Love it but the headstock sucks

You say that, and then you get asked at gun point to be in a Van Halen tribute band. Then you whistle a different tune!

 

[Punchy]

Excellent.

 

[Prages]

Love it.

 

[baimun]

I like the Charvel like EVH guitars better.

 

[GilmourD]

Would.

The new MIM Specials are supposed to be spectacular, too. They went back to a jumbo fret (like the Peaveys) on the Speacials and the Standard that you posted.

Not or Not?

Actually, I like that quite a bit! I like that finish. Looks like it is about to bring the Thunder!

 

[micwalt]

Would.

 

[jelloman]

I love the ebonized quilting...

You are decidedly not a little guy...is it a bit awkward to play?

 

[LeftyTom]

Hot as Wein in Speedos, baby!

Compared to a Strat if feels little.

 

[James Franciscus]

Would.

Contrarian.

 

[GilmourD]

Oh, I'm not a little guy, who you say these are built for. Actually, I'm on the larger end of the scale (unfortunately not in height). Here's me with my Peavey. I don't think it looks awkwardly small.

 

[Stratguy]

Love the quilted top, and like the mtaching black headstock. If that's a 12" radius fretboard, I'd be all over it.
